I wouldn't say this book has been a life-changer, but I did choose to read it at a time where I wasn't in the right mindset. I suppose we all go through times where we look back and think of other possible lives if we had picked different choices. And because I was in that mental state, I quite enjoyed the book.

Also, now I wanna try some philosophy books. Maybe Thoreau's.

What is a life for, if not to live? This book certainly shows a new perspective and embodies the notion of “a new lease on life”.

A quick read packed with insight, heartfelt tenderness and the most brilliant spark of hope. 
The energy of this book is akin to a quick comforting squeeze from a hand held.

Found book over-hyped, boring, and repetitive. But I think the message of it can be nice if you are in a more somber mood and want to read something simple, but hopeful.
